Last Christmas I was heartbroken after experiencin Last Christmas I was heartbroken after experiencing baby loss and needing an op. This Christmas my rainbow baby, Florence, is just over 6 weeks old 🌈 . Never lose hope ✨💗💝🙏. Merry Christmas 🎄! (Thanks for the festive pjs @rocknrollerbaby 😘) #baby #babygirl #rainbowbaby #rainbow #christmas #december
Fun at the fair 😍! It’s beginning to look a l Fun at the fair 😍! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas here 🎅🎄🥰. Swipe for the sweetest video of baby Florence who was entranced with the lights before falling asleep. Look at Xander’s face on the helicopter ride too, he loved it, honestly! The boys have been so attentive and kind to their little sis, helping push the pram and changing her. Big age gaps between kids rocks! Have you guys been up to festive activities too? #christmas #fair #babygirl #mumlife #kidsofinstagram #mumsofinstagram #mumof3 #mumofthree #windsor #berkshire

Huge thank you to @ghhurtcollections @ghhurt for t Huge thank you to @ghhurtcollections @ghhurt for the beautiful knitted woollen baby shawls/ fine blankets they gifted baby Florence. You might recognise this luxurious, award-winning brand as Kate, William, Meghan and Harry all shared the first pictures of their babies in their beautiful shawls. The company asked that I might share my first picture of ‘Princess Florence’ in their shawls when she was born but she arrived early, and in Yorkshire, and the blankets were in Windsor. Better late than never though, here are some super sweet pics to bring some cuteness to your timeline. Originated in 1912 @ghhurt’s collection of shawls are hand finished, knitted in the finest yarns and are all utterly beautiful, do take a look at their site. #baby #babygirl #babygifts #royals #katemiddleton #meghanmarkle #britishroyals #windsor #babiesofinstagram #babies

Had some well-meaning comments recently that have Had some well-meaning comments recently  that have made me feel a little uncomfortable so I wanted to share my thoughts here... Comments  like, ‘The love you feel for a daughter is like no other’ and, ‘’You’ll be so close to your girl’ etc. etc. Like I mentioned, well-meaning but jarring as they seemed to be making reference to my relationship/ the personality of my boys. I’m incredibly close to my two sons and would never have wanted them to be anything other than themselves/girls. I understand gender disappointment is real (should be sex disappointment if we’re being accurate) but I’ve never personally experienced it. I feel we often limit boys (as much as girls) and I’m getting tired of these assumptions if I’m honest. My sons are gentle, kind, resilient, artistic, musical, sporty, scientific-they’re a million different things and I know they’ll guide my daughter to be whomever she wants to be too. Mothers of sons, let me state right now if you were wondering (I’m sure most aren’t) that you love a daughter as much as a son. Every child truly is a blessing. Your family is not incomplete if you only have boys/girls so don’t let any make you feel otherwise. Peace✌️ #siblings #boys #girls #babyboy #babygirl #family #love #mumlife #momlife #mommy #mumblogger
